10/10/2018 - 12:40
I don't want it to include row 7, 8, 9

User
10/10/2018 - 12:43
I think it might just change automatially
User
10/10/2018 - 12:43
I don't think F18 needs it
User
10/10/2018 - 12:43
do not
Excelchat Expert
10/10/2018 - 12:44
So, the formula in F18 should not change?
User
10/10/2018 - 12:45
I don't believe so
User
10/10/2018 - 12:45
it's not averaging

Not averaging
